Morningtide

A lovely and well curated little shop in Albany. Just steps from Solano Ave but easy to miss on a side street, this place is a delight. They have ceramics, incense, jewelry, perfumes, body wash, cards, small gifts. I think I saw granola, olive oil and a few cookbooks. They also have a good selection of gently used clothes, shoes, and bags. Kind people behind the counter. Just a wonderful place all round. I hope this store stays for a long time to come!

I love having this shop near me! Always beautifully curated with a great selection of ceramics and other locally made goods. Great place to get a gift.

Beautiful store with gorgeously curated ceramics and other precious items. Unfortunately I don’t remember the girl’s name who was helping me but she was lovely and super helpful. Great vibes in this store!

My absolute favorite local shop for gifts and home goods! I’ve bought everything from ceramics to jewelry to clothing there - they always have a beautifully curated selection and truly stellar customer service.

Wish I live closer to visit this super lovely place but feeling so lucky to had a chance to collaborate with them. So thankful to both ladies for trusting me and supporting my artworks, not once but twice. The place itself and the super women behind it are both so inspirational in many ways.

Cute little shop with great ceramics from local artists, and delicious chocolates and other things like shampoo or face wash. Also has handmade beautiful clothing.

beautifully curated collection of gifts, both practical and decorative, for any age group. Lovely stuff. any gift from here will impress.

Just walked into this really nice store with absolutely beautiful handmade ceramics.

i love this store. I always come here to get gifts for the people I love. if I opened my own store it is almost exactly what I would want it to be like.

Amazing curated collection. Small but mighty - the owner is lovely and the entire vibe is worth stepping inside for. Love this shop!!

Morningtide is a super cute little popup filled with inventory created by independent designers. So many of the items in the shop were adorable, most especially the hair clips by Nat + Noor. Although the prices felt ever so slightly high, in general they're actually on par with what's charged by the designers. I would have loved to have seen some Nade Studios items, Madi Apparel, Friendsheep pieces, or just crocheted items in general, although it looks like their inventory changes often and sometimes they carry Babaa. The service was super friendly during our visit and I'm excited to keep an eye on Morningtide to see what they're going to carry next!

I love this place. I spend an embarrassing amount of time on the internet and IG, during the pandemic because, well the pandemic. This store came up on my IG feed and I enjoyed all their local items. I initially purchased some tea from Adjourn, Kin Folk. I love the products they feature. The next time I bought an organic teal blanket. It reminds me of the muslin blankets you swaddle babies with, but for adults. I also bought a bell for the back yard, a scarf with a French bulldog design and a different Adjourn tea, that is blue when you drink it. I'll continue to follow them and their cool pop ups with partners.

Cute little store. Emphasis on little. There's really no room for more than 2 people to comfortably browse around. But that's a blessing during the pandemic anyway. Came in specifically looking for @wilderbites dog treats. Thankfully they had them in stock cause wilderbites sells out online. They're dog friendly too so my dog was able to sniff out his favorite. We got the chicken necks.

Tiny but mighty little boutique off of Solano Ave. Thoughtfully curated selection of ceramics. They also sell vintage/secondhand clothes for women and children. It's a nice store to visit if you are looking for a gift for someone, or maybe just yourself :)

Just off Solano, you'll find a super cute curated store - shop local! - with a lovely and unique selection of ceramics, clothing, jewelry, art, children's items, and more. Do you need to get a gift for an artistic friend? Would you like to treat yourself to a little something special? Are you a supporter of shopping local, especially with friendly, helpful and tasteful shop owners? Well then, look no further. I walked out of the store with a wooden stacking gift for my friend's baby which was made in Germany and only used safe dye to color the wood. For my new mom friend, I picked up the heavenly smelling Everyday Oil which can be used, well, every day and pretty much everywhere (belly, face, hair, hands, etc.) I picked up a scrumptious perfume roller for myself. I was eyeing some of the jewelry and ceramics and spoon and cheese knife and... the list goes on. I can't wait for my next visit!

Reason for visit: Support local! Visit date: September 5, 2017 First time? Yes! Morningtide is a thoughtfully curated shop filled with unique, high-quality goods. Today was their soft opening and since I love local shops I had to visit on the first day to peruse and meet the owners. The shop is small but is packed with so much talent. Come in to treat yourself or find a fun gift for a loved one. There are women's clothing options, home goods, art, teas, chocolates, ceramics, soaps, and lots more. On this visit I snagged a box of QUIN caramels (my fave!). I can't wait to see the business grow! Welcome to Albany, Morningtide! Also good to know: The Morningtide grand opening party is on Saturday, September 16 and their online shop launches in early 2018.

lovely items available and a nice calm space. highly recommend for great gifts or to treat yourself.

I love this store! The co-owners are the sweetest and I love shopping the Loop selection. I also love picking up thoughtful gifts for stylish friends from this beautifully curated store. Beautiful selection and aesthetics!

SO BOMB. This store is an absolute gem in the neighborhood. I'm surprised there are not more cool stores like this on Solano actually. They have beautifully crafted ceramics, prints, clothing and more from local artists. I have 4 bowls that are from local arists and I use them almost every single day. They were pricey but are my favorite dishes in my house. I also use a perfume (rose and cedar oil) from the store, which is also a favorite. If you are into artisanal pieces that are actually unique and well crafted, shop here. It's a bit off the high street, so you might miss it, but it's worth hunting for it. Both of the photos were taken at night but both objects are lovely.

The Albany Post Office is a perfectly nice post office. Still, I can't remember hearing anyone ever saying I can't wait to go to the post office, unless _maybe_ they were going there to pick up some great present. So, after I completed a long overdue task at the post office, without thinking I wandered into MorningTide. Books and wooden things along with ceramics caught my eye through the window. Once inside you'll find clean, simple displays, nothing to overwhelm the senses. It's a place to take time to enjoy your surroundings. I can't remember the last time I picked up a children's book, but I did there. And I read the whole thing (who says ppl don't read books anymore?? Heh) and bought it for a present. Beautiful selection of cards. I'd call it a quality gift shop with a mindful selection of books and women's clothes. Treat yourself to a visit.

Love this store!! Incredible jewelry, home ware, clothing etc that you won't find anywhere else! Staff and owners are lovely and kind. Can't ask for much more from a shop!

One of my favorite shops on Solano ave! This is one of my go to places for birthday gifts! I also love Morningtide Loop (I have bought shoes and dresses and they are fantastic!). The owner that I have met is incredibly friendly and helpful. Highly recommend you take the time to stop in and take a look! Every time I go, I want to buy everything in the store =)

I visited Morningtide on an outing with some friends. The shop is just off of Solano Avenue, is small but has an abundance of creativity for yourself, your home or for gifts. There are items for children and clothing for women. There are foodie options, beautiful pottery and other items for the home. Out trip to Albany was fun.

Cute boutique, friendly staff, a bit pricey on some things but overall eclectic mix of things for your wardrobe, kitchen and home. Very unique items here and I'm thankful it's near my house in Berkeley. Only negative parking can be a pain but overall worth the circling to park.

As others have said, this shop has a nicely curated selection of wares from note cards to chocolates to wall art to ceramics to women's clothing. I happened on it when on my way to Time Masters from the parking lot behind the post office. I saw it first when I took my watch in to be fixed but got distracted and forgot to go in when on my way back to my car. Then last Friday I took a wall clock to Time Masters, only to discover them closed. This time I remembered to stop by Morningtide. It's small, but full of wonderful things. The owner was friendly and welcoming and admired my wall clock, which is crafted of a variety of woods and is a work of art in itself. I didn't buy anything, but may return to buy the Thank You cards that appealed to me, or maybe something else. There was a lovely white fiber wall hanging that reminded me a little of the macrame hangings I used to make in the 70s, but I have no wall space. It will look wonderful in someone's home.

What a treasure of a store! How nice to find this little gem of a place where every inch is full of lovely items for yourself or for gifting. It's inspiring just to be in there and you find yourself wishing you could buy one of everything. I bought darling hairclips for my kids and a sweet bowl, which I use it on my bed stand. It's perfect for my night creams and (gasp) retainer. I did end up regretting, however, leaving behind a print! I live in Seattle and am only in the Bay Area every few months. I called the shop and Lisa was so helpful. She knew the print and shipped it to my home here in WA in a jiffy! What wonderful and friendly service. I will be back before the holidays for sure!
